Forums / blog archive as very simple list?

blog archive as very simple list?

    I’m looking for a quick way to create a simple list, just text hyperlinks, for all blogs on a site? This isn’t to replace what is already available, but to add this as an option for people who want to access a list of blogs in this way. I’d rather not have to manually create and update this if possible!

    I’m not very familiar with blocks in wordpress yet, but I looked through the various options and couldn’t see this?

    Ideally just name of blog as a link, with date published/updated. No groupings, no images, not lots of spaces, literally just a list. (Really ideally, I’d be able to do this and toggle the summary of the blog on/off too.)

    This is all to provide additional accessibility options to readers, so if you know of anything else along these lines, please let me know.

    Thanks!

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)
